Honest shopper thread!

If you were given too much change in a shop......and you only realised maybe 10 minutes after you'd left the premises that they'd actually given you change for a £20 note instead of a tenner that you'd given them.......... now be honest with your answer, would you go back to the shop and give it back?

10 mins after leaving premises changes everything.

When I worked at M&S I used to give people cashback without bothering to enter it into the till.

i.e. free money.

Made no difference to me whatsoever.

I probably would, yes.

I have actually done this before, and it got the guy on the till in trouble with his boss for being clumsy. Was only £1.

Definitely in the place I get my lunch from everyday. Chat to the owner a lot so I'd give it back.

Far more likely to do it with small businesses.

If I noticed right away I'd probably blurt it out as a reflex.

Are you serious?

I don't know why this doesn't suprise me.

I'm unsure, depends on the shop tbh.

The inconvience of being 10 minutes away won't help much.

Slinky1989 · 29 Mar 2011 at 00:40

I would, but then I work in retail and know how much trouble you can get in For your till being significantly down at the end of the day.

JBuk · 29 Mar 2011 at 00:40

no, because i'm lazy

Surely your till kept getting flagged up as being short?
